Practical Strategies for Spoken Voice Coaches
Thursday 29th January 2026, 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM (London Time)
This two-hour workshop offers a practical exploration of spoken voice coaching across a variety of settings, from artistic training to other kinds of professional communication contexts.
Designed for coaches working with clients at all experience levels, the session will introduce adaptable strategies for common challenges in voice work, along with flexible frameworks for structuring sessions, selecting exercises, and fostering client growth. Topics may include foundational techniques, favourite “go-to” tools, and key considerations when coaching one-on-one or in group settings.
Participants will also reflect on coaching dos and don’ts, explore ways to support client needs, and consider how to adapt methods to different environments—whether theatre, education, corporate, or beyond. While the focus will remain on practical tools and strategies that participants can implement immediately, the session will also offer broader resources and frameworks to support continued development in this evolving field of voice practice.
